Buxus Sempervirens

Boxwood Hedging

Buxus Sempervirens or box as it is commonly known is the ideal plant for formal hedges or hedging as well as being the topiary plant of choice at hundreds of stately homes and gardens.

Buxus sempervirens has dense small round dark evergreen leaves.

It is a slow growing plant achieving around 10 - 15cm in a season. Buxus Sempervirens should be trimmed in mid-summer.

Buxus will thrive in shade and full sun alike but take care not to plant in standing water or very wet conditions.

Buxus Sempervirens, commonly known as Boxwood, is an evergreen shrub celebrated for its dense, compact foliage and slow growth, which makes it easy to shape and maintain.

This style of hedging can be pruned into various shapes, including topiary balls, columns, cones, cubes, pyramids, spirals, and more. It combines structure and beauty, adding a high-end feel to both front and back gardens.

Where to Site Your Buxus Sempervirens

This versatile evergreen thrives in both full sun and partial shade and adapts to various soil types, including clay. It does not tolerate waterlogged soil, so choose a well-drained location to encourage healthy growth and preserve its neat, compact form. For consistent moisture, consider using a soaker hose.

Growth and Pruning

Ideal for small to medium-sized hedges, Buxus Sempervirens typically grow to 2-3 feet tall and up to 4 feet wide. It has a slow growth rate, adding about 1 foot per year. Regular pruning is essential to maintain its shape and density. Trim in late spring or early summer to remove weak or dead branches, with a follow-up trim in late summer to keep it tidy.

Characteristics

  • Dense, compact growth with small, light green new leaves maturing to dark green.
  • Maintains a formal, well-structured appearance with minimal upkeep.
  • Adaptable to various soil types but prefers well-drained conditions.
  • Slow-growing, ideal for defined borders or formal hedges.
  • Hardy and provides year-round interest.
  • Pot Grown (year-round purchase)
